Hi y'all. I found this site while looking for ideas on smoking a whole pork loin. I've done dozens of tenderloins, but never a whole loin. Saw a picture of one wrapped in bacon and figured that's just about the best way to try it. Using hickory, got the pit at 230, just going to go until it hits 160. See how it turns out. Happy fathers day to everyone!

Hey bud, how did this turn out for you?

It turned out fantastic. I think next time I'll smoke it for an hour before I wrap it, that way the meat gets a more smoky flavor. The bacon kind of acted like a barrier against that, but goodness it was moist.

Yeah that sounds like a good plan. I have done a pork loin with a simple herb rub and it took a very decent amount of smoke. So you may be right about the bacon being a barrier....anyway, at least this gives you an excuse to smoke another! All for the purpose of science! Cheers
